While we agree with, "my property, my rules", we simply believe that unforeseen circumstances could lead to unforeseen consequences.

I wear vests, sport coats, etc to conceal my OWB when in public. When I get home, I just remove those to be comfortable. My aim is not to open carry at home, but to be comfortable...though it does then become open carry. Friends/neighbors come over and not like it...sorry, my property. Fact is, I don't know that I have anti-gun friends. Exception being if children come over I then cover, as I don't want them asking if they can touch it/hold it, etc.

BTW, TAMU, you don't have to have a CHL to carry on your property. If you're not already doing it, it is a good way to get in practice for when you do.

that's cool. i'll probably be doing around the same.

yeah, i know you don't have to have it; i'm just impatient. i carry it around the house when i go home, but i'm ready to be able to take it outside!

You can take it outside too without a CHL! Just stay on your property!

well i live in a fourplex apartment right now, so i don't really have designated property. i have a back yard, but thats about it.
